Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the Subscription Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission") and it is expected that such Admission will occur at 8.00 a.m. on 4 July 2025.

Following Admission of the Subscription Shares, the Company will have 204,201,583 Ordinary Shares in issue, of which none are held in treasury. Accordingly, the total number of voting rights in the Company will be 204,201,583 and shareholders may use this figure as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
